I have found the Ujig album on Spotify under the album title. It is listed as Various Artists. About to have a listen.

Forgot to mention, Pete Jones joined Camel on vocals and keyboards. Their recent tour was postponed due to Andy Latimer's poor health.

No love for It Bites, Pete? Surprised. Big IB-Dunnery fan here!

Oh It Bites are the best (neo prog) though I would never incorporate them in that genre as they are way above the all others. Great songs and musicianship way beyond anyone else at that time and genius melodies. Never did the 70's reboot Genesis derivative stuff all the other yawn bands did. Tiger Moth Tales also great Prog. Peter Jones is stunning you would never know he is blind and he plays and produces it all himself to see him live is like seeing Jeff Healey which I also did.

Blacksmith Tales! The best album of last year and their first "The dark presence" is even better. Great band.

Man, that Wyatt E. album is such a trip! I can certainly understand, why it would be an 'acquired taste' for most, but personality I love it! It almost sounds like an imaginary 'soundtrack' to an unreleased H.P. Lovecraft novel about the Mad Arab Abdul Alhazred! Easily one of the most unique albums of 2025; my only complaint is, that at a run time of 35 minutes, it's way too short! I wanted more! 🤗

Always an awkward start to these, I love it.

The Gillian box set is out. It’s called Gillian 1978-1982 it has 6 disks and there are bonus songs also. Price for it is very reasonable. Worth getting.

The Ujigami album is excellent – couple for sale here in Europe.
Not that appealing to the UK though as, due to Brexit, have to add 20% VAT on the sale and the postage is high. makes it around $40, will have to pass.

Particular thanks to The Professor this week for bringing in the Blind Golem cd. After Pete's review a week or two ago, the usual suspects on the internet were sold out of copies. That and a couple of other items ordered for this week. The usual thanks to Ken and Pete for providing these weekly episodes.

I can't believe Pete is buying records! When I saw the Princeton video I thought your wife probably had to say what the hell are you doing? 😂 Old Man Prog is the worst influence. 👴🏼🎶

Bring it on guys! I received the new Banco, Storie Invisibili and Nuova Era 20,000 Leghe Sotto I Mari releases from Gabrielli at BTF Italy two days early on the 26th. Haven’t had enough free time to listen to either of them yet. The last two Banco releases were excellent!
